1961 Miles Davis Gem with an Amazing Band
Cut by George Marino at Sterling Sound and Pressed at RTI
When this album was originally released in 1961, the press praised Miles Davis' precision playing and expansive lyricism. Someday My Prince Will Come showcases Miles' second great rhythm section, which is heard here at the absolute peak of its telepathic interplay. The recording features the incredible lineup of musicians John Coltrane, Hank Mobley, Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers and Jimmy Cobb. They were as tight as any unit Miles ever formed.
Someday My Prince Will Come includes positively blistering solos from guest Coltrane, who, as fate would have it, was making his final recording with Miles. That alone deems this a must-hear recording. But then there's the sound. Wow! Trust us when we tell you that this is absolutely the very best this album has ever sounded in any format. The details in the grooves, the width of the soundstage, the presence of air; everything is simply incredible. Our highest recommendation!
Musicians:
Miles Davis, trumpet
Hank Mobley, tenor saxophone
John Coltrane, tenor saxophone (1,5)
Wynton Kelly, piano
Paul Chamber, double bass
Jimmy Cobb, drums

Remastered
Prince Nico Mbarga (1950–1997) was a half-Cameroonian
Nigerian highlife vocalist and guitarist whose music played a
significant role in the evolution of African pop music. His 1976 hit
song “Sweet Mother” (which sold more than 13 million copies) is
so popular that is sometimes called “Africa's anthem”, no small
feat for a continent with such a rich musical tradition! Like many,
Prince Nico began playing with a hotel band in 1970, and by1973
had his first local hit. Cool Money is a rare 1979 album, originally
released on the Nigerian RAS (Roger's All Stars) label, when the artist was at the height of his
success. Prince Nico was unfortunately killed in 1997 in a motorcycle accident, which of course,
has only added to his legend.

1972 was an incredible year for John McLaughlin (guitar), Jan Hammer (keyboards), Billy Cobham (drums), Jerry Goodman (violin) and Rick Laird (bass). As the Mahavishnu Orchestra, these five multi-talented musicians not only made up one of the first classic jazz/rock fusion outfits, but they also delivered the masterpiece Birds Of Fire, one of the more successful albums of that year, catapulting them into the upper rungs of the album charts.
A true audiophile dream album come true, Birds Of Fire culminates the collective geniuses of these five players led by the haunting guitar licks of John McLaughlin into territories rarely heard and not seen since. Kicking things off with the mesmerizing title track Birds Of Fire, followed by McLaughlinÆs tribute to Miles Davis with Miles Beyond, the listener soon becomes intrigued with the stunning and powerful musical collaborations of this superstar quintet.
The new decade comes with an incredible gift to the serious audiophile and jazz/rock fusion collector as Friday Music is very proud to announce the 180g Audiophile Vinyl release of Birds Of Fire by The Mahavishnu Orchestra.

 Things Are Getting Better
Cannonball Adderley
$29.99
180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl LP - Sealed
|
Import
All-star session recorded in NYC in the autumn of 1958, led by
Cannonball Adderley on alto sax, and Milt Jackson on vibes. The
rhythm section is also no less noteworthy with Wynton Kelly on piano,
Percy Heath on bass and Art Blakey on drums. This date represents
an interesting and successful juxtaposition of the two sides of jazz at
the time, with Adderley coming from the more improvisational and
swinging side of downtown jazz and Jackson coming from the more
cerebral side of jazz as 'high art'. But despite hailing from different
sides of the scene, both men are considered venerable “practitioners
of the blues” and this is perhaps the tie that binds these men together
on this memorable date. The group plays a range of tunes including
two of Adderley's own compositions: the title track “Things Are Getting Better” and “Sounds For Sid”
(dedicated to a favorite disc jockey of the time). Jackson also contributes one of his own themes with
the original “Blues Oriental”, which leads off the disc. They also play Dizzy's bop-era classic “Groovin'
High”, while Adderley presents his own modern take on “The Sidewalks of New York”. An important
meeting of top shelf jazz musicians in a critical year in jazz history.
Track Listing:
Side A
1. Blues Oriental (Milt Jackson)
2. Things Are Getting Better (Julian Adderley)
3. Serves Me Right (Budd Johnson)
4. Groovin’ High (Dizzie Gillespie)
Side B

Numbered Limited Edition
Sinatra's 1966 Live Album With Count Basie and Quincy Jones as Good as Music, Performance, and Chemistry Get
Half-Speed Mastered from the Original 4-Track Master Tapes for Breathtaking Sound
Audiophiles Will Be in the Copa Room With Sinatra Standing in Front of Them
Frank Sinatra. Count Basie. Quincy Jones. Las Vegas. Combinations and circumstances don’t get any better. And by every measure, Sinatra at the Sands is as good as music gets. Comprised of live material recorded at five nights in early 1966 at the famed Copa Room, Ol’ Blue Eyes’ 22-song album stands as one of his pinnacle achievements, the results a blend of superb chemistry, sparkling arrangements, infallible singing, and contagious energy. As part of its continuing series of essential Sinatra recordings, Mobile Fidelity is proud to offer the record in the most definitive-sounding edition available. Listeners will be transported to a table close to the stage, with the image of a tuxedo-clad Sinatra unfolding right in front of them.
By 1966, Sinatra had conquered the world. His tenure as a teen idol and maturing crooner behind him, he was confident, assured, focused, and quite simply, untouchable. Music’s top arrangers and composers came to him, knowing the magic that he’d bring to their labors of love. It’s for these reasons that Count Basie and his orchestra backs Sinatra here, and why Jones, in demand by everyone, chooses instead to lend his arrangement insights onstage at the Sands. Indeed, Sinatra at the Sands harkens back to the day’s when concerts were a true event, and the album is nothing short that promise. This is a happening you won’t want to miss.
Containing many of Sinatra’s most well-known and celebrated performances--“I’ve Got a Crush on You,” “Fly Me to the Moon (In Other Words),” “Luck Be a Lady” among them--Sinatra at the Sands finds the entertainer in immaculate voice. He improvises lines with effortless and ease, casually adorns lyrics with hidden rhythms, stretches notes to instill meaning and emotion, and utilizes his impeccable knack for phrasing to turn a line and beget instrumental responses that complement each song’s mood. Meanwhile, Basie and Co. swing on uptempo numbers and lay back on melancholy tunes that still bring a tear to the eye.
Warner Bros. executive Stan Cornyn, writing about these very shows, observed that, doing more than sing, “Sinatra turns actor. The man whose broad’s left him with some other guy and all of the loot…And there is silence about, for this audience is watching a man become that last lucked-out guy at the bar, the last one, with no where to go but sympathy city.” And so it goes, Sinatra proving it’s the singer and the song, demonstrating a seemingly unlimited range as he transports you to saloons, romantic parks, lonely streets, and bustling cities. Everything—the pacing, structure, passion, interpretation—is perfect.
Mobile Fidelity has half-speed mastered this exquisite analog set from the original four-track master tapes, originally recorded by engineer Lowell Frank. Clear, big, and sumptuous, Sinatra at the Sands now resonates with previously unheard details, transparency, imaging, projection, smoothness, and dimensionality. Capturing a human voice remains the most difficult recording task. Suffice it to say that this 2LP set will join the ranks of the very best recordings you own.

1. Come Fly with Me (Jimmy Van Heusen, Sammy Cahn)
2. I've Got a Crush on You (George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin)

 Bare Bones

Acclaimed 2009 Gem is Jazz Chanteuse's First Album of Originals
Extraordinary Sound Transports Listeners to a Small Coffeehouse: You Need to Hear This on Vinyl!
Peyroux's Half the Perfect World and Careless Love Also Available on MoFi 180-gram LP
Having proven several times over that she’s among the premier vocal jazz singers on the planet with Half the Perfect World and Careless Love—both available as limited-edition 180-gram LPs from Mobile Fidelity—Madeleine Peyroux makes her mark as a songwriter on the exquisite Bare Bones, her first album of originals. A thematic record that begins with wariness, moves to loss, builds to acceptance, and finishes with hope, the critically acclaimed set is Peyroux’s most soul-baring effort.
The record’s title says it all. Deeply personal and eminently mature, the chanteuse strips everything down, from her emotional guard to the arrangements. Peyroux penned many of the songs with longtime producer Larry Klein (Joni Mitchell), and also co-wrote the standout “You Can’t Do Me” with Steely Dan legend Walter Becker. As expected, a tart wittiness defines the lyrics, demonstrating Peyroux’s continual growth as an artist. Becker's contributions also spice the title track, while noted tunesmiths Joe Henry and Julian Coryell assist on other songs. As usual, the singer enjoys the sparse, elegant backing of a small group of first-rate musicians. Peyroux’s alto vocals shine.
The empress of the jazzy, languid groove does what she has done on her two bestsellers (and her half-forgotten 1996 debut); purr intimately about life and the iniquities of love over retro backings of brushed drums and polite piano that evoke Billie Holiday. –Neil Spencer, The Observer, March 2009
Sonically, Bare Bones continues Peyroux’s tradition of making some of the best-sounding albums around. Her tunes—direct, emotional, beautiful, detailed—benefit from production that emphasizes her strengths and puts a spotlight on the songs, not on any unnecessary tricks or embellishments. This is strictly about the music, its emotional effects on the listener, and the universal healing power of feelings associated with lost love and recovery.
It’s hard to imagine a candlelit cocktail bar that wouldn’t benefit from playing Madeleine Peyroux’s fourth album, Bare Bones. The ear loves to catch on the inflections of her supple alto, the clear picking on her acoustic guitar, the pacing as slow as a hand-stitched dress. –Margaret Wappler, Los Angeles Times, March 2009
Half-speed mastered from the original analog tapes, Mobile Fidelity’s 180-gram 2-LP set enhances the experiences of hearing Peyroux’s languorous gems. Transparent, airy, three dimensional, fully textured, and featuring extended response from the acoustic bass and guitars, this analog pressing puts you in the middle of a coffeehouse, with Peyroux and her small ensemble seated a few feet in front of you. It’s that good.
Mobile Fidelity’s collector's vinyl editions of Peyroux’s earlier hit studio albums have sold quickly. Don’t wait on this.

The Definitive 45RPM Blue Note Reissue Series!
Lee Morgan began carving out his musical legacy while still a teenager and never looked back. He emerged from Philadelphia in 1956 playing with such brilliance that he was dubbed the new Clifford Brown. Dizzy Gillespie, on one of his tour stops in Philly, heard Lee play and immediately hired him for Gillespie’s own globe trotting band. Lee Morgan was never a mere copy or revivalist but a powerful creative force from the start with his own fresh musical ideas. Few 18-year olds in jazz history have started out at such a high level and maintained it throughout their career. On Vol. 3 from 1957, Morgan performs five compositions and arrangements by the great tenor-saxophonist Benny Golson including the original and definitive version of the heartbreaking I Remember Clifford. Morgan's sound on trumpet was already brilliant, his ideas fresh and new, and his solos full of crackling fire and confidence. For all of his swagger and intensity, it is Morgan's passionate rendition of I Remember Clifford that remains in one's mind long after this superb album is finished. Vol. 3 is a superb musical document of the emergence of a true giant.

The father of jazz piano, Jelly Roll Morton got his start playing piano
in the bordellos of New Orleans in the nineteen-teens, but soon
began traveling around the South. He spent five years on the West
Coast where he became very popular, but soon moved to Chicago to
take advantage of its burgeoning jazz scene. After gaining his first hit
in 1923 with “Wolverine Blues”, he soon recorded several classic
sides for Victor with a New Orleans-style band made up of some of
the top sidemen of his day, called the Red Hot Peppers. These
recordings, made in Chicago in 1926-27 are from that classic period
and are some of the finest examples of the “Hot” style.

An influential figure in the early 20th century development of blues and popular music as a music scholar and as the composer of numerous popular songs, W.C. Handy has often been called the Father of the Blues. When two of the finest and most popular of mid-20th century musical figures, jazz and popular music icon Nat King Cole and style setting arranger extraordinare Nelson Riddle undertook an album dedicated to the music of W.C. Handy, the results were at once a worthy tribute and transformative. Particularly smooth vocals by Nat King Cole were aptly backed by resourceful orchestrations from Nelson Riddle. From the landmark laments of St. Louis Blues and the loving appreciation of Morning Star on through to the colloquial rag of Joe Turner's Blues, the varied facets of W.C. Handy's songs were given a lastingly freshened interpretation. Along with the contemporary Louis Armstrong Plays W.C. Handy (also available here at Acoustic Sounds), this album is considered by many to be the best anthology of the music of W.C. Handy.
Using the original first generation 3-track session tapes from Capitol's vaults and all-analogue systems including custom headstacks, 3-track preview heads, console and monitoring chain installed at AcousTech specially for these releases, mastering engineers Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman realize the rich beauty of these recordings in this double 45-RPM 180-gram album set. Included with this deluxe reissue is a striking six-panel booklet complete with rare photos, a 1,600-word essay by Jordan Taylor on the album and a 1,200-word essay by Michael Fremer about the remastering process. This truly is a no-expenses-spared project, resulting in the ultimate version of this title and a historic reissue.
Originally released in 1958.

 Getz Au Go-Go
Stan Getz
$59.99
180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl 45 RPM LP - 2 LPs Sealed
|
Mastered by Bernie Grundman from the Original Analog Master Tapes! Only 2500 Numbered Limited Edition Copies Worldwide! It was one of those rare nights of absolute communication - the New York City opening of the New Stan Getz Quartet.
"Stan had chosen the Cafe Au Go Go for this occasion because of its fine acoustics and its intimacy. Atmosphere was paramount to the first New York presentation of the New Stan Getz Quartet and Astrud Gilberto because of the soft, easy quality of their music. Astrud had already won acclaim for her work with Getz in the album Getz/Gilberto (V/V 6-8548), which also stars Astrud's husband Joao Gilberto as well, and this threesome's single from the album The Girl From Ipanema was rapidly rising on the best-selling charts.
"This, is the stunning New Stan Getz Quartet with Astrud Gilberto at Cafe Au Go Go. Reflected here are the excitement, warmth and communication of that memorable engagement." -Gene Lees, from the liner notes of Getz Au Go Go
"Although the name Stan Getz (tenor sax) was initially synonymous with the West Coast cool scene during the mid-to-late 1950s, he likewise became a key component in the Bossa Nova craze of the early 1960s... Getz Au Go Go featuring Astrud Gilberto (1964) was the second-to-last album that he would issue during his self-proclaimed "Bossa Nova Era"— the final being Getz/Gilberto #2 [live] (1964) concert title from Carnegie Hall. ... the focus of Getz Au Go Go steers away from the Brazilian flavored fare, bringing Astrud Gilberto into the realm of a decidedly more North American style. That said, there are a few Antonio Carlos Jobim compositions — "Corcovado (Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars)" and "One Note Samba" — both of which would be considered as jazz standards in years to follow — as well as the lesser-circulated "Eu E Voco." - All Music Guide

 Something Else
Ornette Coleman
$24.99
180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl LP - Sealed
|
Import
The aptly titled “Something Else!” really was something else when it first hit the shops in 1958. Ornette Coleman’s debut album sounded unlike anything the jazz world had ever heard before and like any true revolutionary he was simultaneously both heckled as a fraud and lauded as a genius of the future of jazz. Half a century later, and given Coleman’s extraordinary influence in both the jazz and rock world, it is difficult to imagine that Coleman could have had a hard time getting work as a sideman, but his style was so unusual that even fellow jazz musicians thought he was “out of tune”. Only a small group of people understood what he was trying to do at first, and this album, featuring Coleman playing his famous plastic alto sax, Don Cherry on trumpet, Billy Higgins on drums, Walter Norris on piano and Don Payne on bass, a landmark album in jazz, was so far ahead of its time that it still sounds fresh 50 years later!

 Tomorrow Is The Question
Ornette Coleman
$24.99
180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl LP - Sealed
|
Import
Born in Fort Worth, Texas in 1930, Ornette Coleman began playing alto sax in 1944 and tenor soon after, and is almost entirely self-taught. From the beginning Coleman chose the path less traveled, concerning himself with pitch and melody and trying to extract qualities of the human voice with his horn. The result was a sound in jazz that no one had ever heard before, sparking the “free jazz” revolution, which soon became one of its major currents. Despite an early lack of comprehension over what Coleman was doing, the titles of his early albums suggest that Coleman himself knew exactly how his music would influence the jazz world (Tomorrow Is the Question, Something Else), it was just a question of time. This, Coleman’s second album, recorded in 1959 in Los Angeles was produced by one of Coleman’s early supporters, Lester Koenig of the great Contemporary Records, and features Don Cherry on trumpet, Percy Heath / Red Mitchell on bass and Shelly Manne on drums. It was during this time that Coleman’s career began to take off, thanks in part to John Lewis of the Modern Jazz Quartet who got Coleman and Cherry spots at the School of Jazz in Lenox, Massachusetts. This same year Coleman recorded his watershed album “The Shape of Jazz to Come”.

Louis Smith
$49.99
180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl LP 45 RPM - 2 LPs Sealed

Louis Smith was one of the most vital jazz trumpeters of the late 1950s. His beautiful tone, fluent style and exciting solos competed with Lee Morgan and even Miles Davis. Smithville, from 1958, features him at the peak of his powers. Recorded the same year as Smith's heated appearance at the Newport Jazz Festival with Horace Silver, Smithville features the trumpeter interacting with tenor-saxophonist Charlie Rouse and pianist Sonny Clark on some stunning performances. The title cut, a lengthy themeless blues, is full of creative solos, "Wetu" is explosive (with Rouse challenging Smith), and "Embraceable You" contains emotional solos that make the George Gershwin ballad sound brand new. Louis Smith proves to be a masterful player whose solos are full of surprises and honest emotions. Smithville is a gem that all hard bop collectors will cherish.

"Hersch's music: luxurious, free-flowing, unashamedly gorgeous jazz is idiosyncratically, unmistakably a creation of his own," David Hajdu wrote in a recent, riveting New York Times profile on Hersch's music and life. The piece detailed Hersch's recovery from a harrowing, near-death health battle and placed him in the forefront of contemporary, innovative jazz artists and chronicles his influence on many of today's brightest young musicians. Whirl is Hersch's first recording since undergoing intense physical therapy and achieving full recuperation.
Hersch is widely considered a genius on the piano. He moved to New York from Cincinnati in the 1970s, earning his credibility as a piano prodigy at Bradley's. His list of credits as a band leader, co-leader, sideman and soloist are astounding. He has worked extensively with jazz masters Stan Getz, Joe Henderson, and Jane Ira Bloom, Art Farmer, Toots Thielemans, Gary Burton, Bill Frisell, Sam Jones and Charlie Haden and has appeared on over 100 recordings. He is also a three-time Grammy nominee

After their success with Blind Lemon Jefferson, Chicago’s Paramount was scouting for more male blues talent, and they found it in 1926 in a man called Blind Blake (1893-1933), a sophisticated guitar player who was the antithesis of Delta blues. Like many, he played his guitar like a piano but few did it with the talent of this man. Called the “King of Ragtime-blues”, no one had fingers as fast as Blind Blake, but by 1933 he was dead (some say his drinking killed him). These recordings taken from 1927-28 are a collection of Blind Blake’s early material, showcasing the man at his musical peak, before alcohol began to take its toll.

Time Further Out continues the Dave Brubeck Quartet's exploration of unusual time signatures that began on the ensemble's definitive 1959 album Time Out. Accompanied by an all-star cast, the esteemed pianist arranging tunes according to the number of beats per bar, in the process rewriting rhythmic rules and dance steps. In fact, the tracks are ordered by the number of beats per bar, starting with "It's a Raggy Waltz" and "Bluette" in 3/4, "Charles Matthew Hallelujah" in 4/4, "Far More Blue" and "Far More Drums" in 5/4, "Maori Blues" in 6/4, "Unsquare Dance" in 7/4, "Bru's Boogie Woogie" in 8/8, and concluding with "Blue Shadows in the Street" in 9/8.
Like the original Time Out album, Time Further Out's cover features a work of modern art: a painting by Spanish artist Joan Miro. Mastered from the original analog tape by George Marino at Sterling Sounds in New York and pressed at RTI in Camarillo, California, this record has never sounded so alive or immediate. A must-have jazz benchmark.

Grant Green's burning single-note lines out-swung most horn players. In the 1960s, Grant Green was the Blue Note guitarist. He could jam soulfully with organ combos, play bebop with the best, and dig into the most adventurous jazz on Blue Note while sounding perfectly at home. Solid, a memorable gem from 1964, remarkably went unreleased by Blue Note for 15 years because there were so many other Grant Green recordings at the time. Green is part of a shockingly brilliant sextet (Joe Henderson, James Spaulding, McCoy Tyner, Bob Cranshaw and Elvin Jones) performing music worthy of their talents including George Russell's "Ezz-Thetic" and Henderson's "The Kicker." The playing is full of surprises, the rhythm section displays telepathic interplay, and Grant Green shows in every soulful note that he was a guitar giant.

Clarinetist Pee Wee Russell’s career on record stretched all the way from the 1920s, when he played with musicians such as Jack Teagarden and Bix Beiderbecke, to the 1960s, when he appeared with Thelonious Monk at Newport and made albums that included compositions by modernists such as Ornette Coleman and John Coltrane. Although he was pegged as being Dixieland by some and trumpeted as an elder hero of the '60s avant-garde by others, Russell remained a school unto himself. Jazz writer Whitney Balliett said that Russell played with an incomparable daring and nakedness and intuition. He had discovered some of the secrets of life and his improvisations were generally successful attempts to tell those secrets in a new, funny, gentle way. After Russell died, his friend and musical cohort Ruby Braff, told Nat Hentoff, "Like Louis Armstrong, Pee Wee will always be contemporary."

Brilliantly backing the intimately expressive and supremely musical voice of the incomparable Nat "King" Cole, a big band with no "strings" smolders, swings, saunters, storms, sighs and sizzles with the arrangements of the distinctive Billy May. Featuring top shelf interpretations of "These Foolish Things," "Who's Sorry Now?" "The Party's Over" and more, this album is among its era's finest recordings of popular music and its quality, style and spirit remains unexcelled.
Using the original 3-track session tapes from Capitol's vaults and all-analogue systems including custom headstacks, 3-track preview heads, console and monitoring chain installed at AcousTech specially for these releases, mastering engineers Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman realize the stunning beauty of these recordings. A superb track recorded for the album, "You'll Never Know," which was omitted due to space constraints, is included in this double 45-RPM 180-gram album set. Included with this deluxe reissue is a striking six-panel booklet complete with rare photos, a 2,200-word essay by Jordan Taylor on the album and a 1,200-word essay by Michael Fremer about the remastering process. This truly is a no-expenses-spared project, resulting in the ultimate version of this title and a historic reissue.
Originally released in 1957.

Johnny Griffin had been kicking around in R&B bands for years before his Blue Note debut in 1956. And what was "introduced" was a tenor saxophonist with a fresh sound, a warm, soulful style and the fastest technique in jazz. He moves from lyrical ballads to blistering tempos with ease. Within two years, Griff would become one of the leading tenor saxophonists in jazz as a member of Thelonious Monk's quartet.

The presence of John Coltrane's pianist and drummer, McCoy Tyner and Elvin Jones respectively, give this quartet album weight and passion. Henderson's playing is incandescent throughout. The first three selections are exciting, probing Henderson originals that soar, but his interpretations of the Duke Pearson ballad "You Know I Care" and Cole Porter's "Night and Day" are equally vivid.

One of the truly great trumpeters, Kenny Dorham had his own sound, was a skilled songwriter and was a first-rate talent scout who is credited with discovering Joe Henderson. One of the early beboppers, he perfectly led the way to hard bop in both his playing and his writing. Dorham recorded a series of exciting albums for Blue Note. Afro-Cuban was the first and one of the most stirring. Dating from 1955, its mixture of Latin music and hard bop was ahead of its time. Using such notables as Hank Mobley, Horace Silver, J.J. Johnson and Art Blakey (whose drumming is dazzling throughout) plus percussionist Patato Valdes, Dorham contributes memorable originals, colorful arrangements that perfectly set up the solos, and his distinctive trumpet. Kenny Dorham, who plays with passion and intensity throughout this set, leads the all-star group through such numbers as "K.D.'s Motion," "Minor's Holiday" and the mambo of "Basheer's Dream." Even the set's only ballad, "Lotus Flower," is just barely restrained enough to keep the ensemble from exploding. This album will raise the temperature in any room by at least five degrees.

It's hard to believe, but the highly acclaimed, classically trained Bill Evans had to wait until February 1966 before he could give a concert in New York. The city's Town Hall proffered an auspicious venue for the Trio after performing in clubs with their frequently bad conditions. Bill Evans also presents himself as a soloist, playing his own composition, which is dedicated to his father. The number is Ravel-like at the beginning, has two jazz improvisations in the middle section, and an almost epic finale - a construction he liked to employ not only in many of his works but also in his interpretation of standard numbers. The 1500-strong audience at the concert is remarkably hushed, and this is highly beneficial for the pensive, intuitive style of the pianist, for now he can concentrate on making contact with the bass player Chuck Israels and the percussionist Arnold Wise. It is obvious that both artists feel at home with Bill Evans' concept of equal status, which he continued to develop ever since the formation of his first Trio in 1958.

 Patterns In Jazz
Gil Melle
$49.99
45 RPM 180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl LP - Sealed

Gil Melle was a 20th century renaissance man, a unique individual with wide interests and many talents. In his life he wrote over 125 film scores, was a pioneer in experimenting with electronic music, built computers and synthesizers, was a notable painter, piloted planes, restored automobiles and airplanes, and was a visual artist whose art was used on the cover of records by Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins and Thelonious Monk. Musically he never stood still or fit easily into any category. Early on Melle was a highly skilled baritone-saxophonist with his own sound and approach, performing at the Village Vanguard before he was even old enough to have a drivers license. Patterns In Jazz from 1956 is Gil Melle's definitive straight-ahead jazz recording. The music is colorful and adventurous, laidback but eminently approachable. Teamed in a quintet with trombonist Eddie Bert and guitarist Joe Cinderella, the emphasis is on low tones, bright colors and surprising patterns, whether on Melle’s originals or inventive rearrangements of “Moonlight In Vermont” and “Long Ago And Far Away”. Blue Note engineer Rudy Van Gelder seemed to have a special affinity for Melle’s music since all of the Melle sessions recorded in Van Gelder’s studio are sonically exceptional, including this one. The music on this rare gem is as unique, unusual and memorable as is Gil Melle himself.

A giant of modern jazz, John Coltrane played in Dizzy Gillespie's orchestra, with Eddie Vinson's band and most notably with Miles Davis. He inspired and influenced many younger musicians with his distinctive and often adventurous playing. This quartet was formed in 1961.
When John Coltrane was asked, Why a ballads album?, he said Variety. Meaning a change of pace. And perhaps he wanted to apprise those who haven't discovered that he can be lyrical. John played the tunes straight, in the in-choruses, unless you count his lovely phrase endings as deviations from melody. When the development occurred, he made his musical points quickly and succinctly. I'd never heard him play this tightly. - Gene Lee (liner notes for Ballads)

1965 was one of the turning points in the career of John Coltrane. The great saxophonist, whose playing was always very explorative and searching, crossed the line into atonality during that year, playing very free improvisations that were full of passion and fury. Just two months after recording A Love Supreme, Trane began recording an album of outside material heard here on The John Coltrane Quartet Plays. Features the classic quartet's stirring versions of the standards Chim Chim Cheree and Nature Boy along with the Coltrane originals Brazilia and Song of Praise.

These two virtuoso guitarists were coming from different musical worlds when they came together for this unique 1972 project. What they shared, besides the instrument they'd mastered, was profound spirituality; both had taken inspiration from the music of John Coltrane. The core of Love Devotion Surrender is made up of the three magnificent extended guitar jams including Coltrane's A Love Supreme which borders on spiritual ecstasy. To hear Carlos Santana and John McLaughlin trading licks and then coming together is a guitar fan's dream come true and while the guitar playing is absolutely stunning in its virtuosity here, the music never loses its focus or its soul.

 The Very Best Of Prestige Records
Various Artists
$11.99
Vinyl LP - Sealed
|
When producer Bob Weinstock founded Prestige Records in 1949, little did he know that his tiny independent recording company would become iconic in documenting an era when jazz was in its golden age. While the label also recorded blues and folk music in its lifetime, Prestige was primarily known as the label that stood for high-premium jazz throughout its active history. Its legacy continued first as a reissue imprint with Fantasy Records and today with the Concord Music Group.
The Very Best of Prestige Records opens a wide window on a 20-year period when jazz made great evolutionary strides, from bebop to soul jazz. Phillips says, “As we toast the 60th anniversary of Prestige, we offer this collection as an appetizer, knowing full well that it can’t help but whet your appetite for much, much more of the tasty and ageless musical offerings available from the iconic label.”
Produced by Nick Phillips, the compilation of instrumental imporvisational music features music by a who's who of the jazz world in the '50s and '60s. Artists include Gene Ammons, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Eric Dolphy, Dexter Gordon, Lee Konitz/Lennie Tristano, MJQ, Thelonious Monk, James Moody and Sonny Rollins.

In a career that spans nearly four decades and includes gigs with Return to Forever, Rite of Strings and a variety of other solo and collaborative projects along the way, bassist Stanley Clarke, one of the most prominent voices in electric jazz and fusion, had seemingly covered every possible corner of the jazz landscape. But there was one avenue he had yet to explore. “I had never done an acoustic bass record, ever,” he says. “There’s a long list of people on whose records I’ve played acoustic bass, Art Blakey, Dexter Gordon, Stan Getz, Joe Henderson and many others, but I’d never done an acoustic jazz trio record of my own. So I wanted to record one that would just feature the piano and the acoustic bass in a way that you could really hear the bass.”
This long-overdue dream project becomes a reality with Jazz In The Garden. For his first straight-a-head acoustic jazz trio recording, Clarke assembles two brilliant collaborators at the top of their respective games: pianist Hiromi Uehara and drummer Lenny White. Each represents a distinctly different generational and cultural perspective, but given the range and versatility of both, the net effect is superb. Indeed, the synergy resulting from all three of these luminaries makes for one of the most refreshing Stanley Clarke recordings in recent years.

Moondog’s debut release, originally on the Prestige label, came out in 1956, long after he’d become a legendary New York City street performer. The blind Kansas native showcases his talent for the minimal and avant-garde here, with compositions driven by percussion and Japanese-inspired melodies, complimented by street sounds, recitations, and animal noises. Bizarre even for today’s standards, it’s a wonder this was released over a half-century ago. A brilliant debut.

It continues the NYC street performer’s exploration of minimalist composition and field recording, mixing percussion and sparse melodies with piano solos, street sounds, and monologues. Surprisingly accessible despite it’s avant-garde nature, bridging the gap between the familiar and the bizarre. Another all out masterwork from one of 20th century America’s most unique minds.

 Ghetto Paradise
Antonio Forcione
$29.99
180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl LP Import - Sealed
PRE-ORDER
|
Naim Label stalwart, and virtuoso acoustic guitarist Antonio Forcione introduces his highly successful Ghetto Paradise on 180g virgin vinyl. Originally released in 1999, Ghetto Paradise was Forcione’s third studio album to be released on the Naim Label. The album has enjoyed the same rigorous quality control of an Abbey Road remaster for the vinyl edition (by Steve Rooke) which has been pressed at the legendary Portalspace Records in the UK.
Ghetto Paradise features the rhythmic midas touch of legendary world jazz percussionist Trilok Gurtu (who has worked with everybody from John McLaughlin to Neneh Cherry), Liberian/German fretless bass extraordinaire Kai Eckhardt (also of John McLaughlin Trio and well known for his work in the 1990s with Billy Cobham) and additional musical textures from saxophonists Roberto Manzin and Ed Jones, bassist Davide Mantovani and percussionist Bosco de Oliveira. Both visually and sonically, Ghetto Paradise was highly inspired by the sight and sounds of Antonio’s upbringing in the Italian hilltop town of Montecilfone and the importance of family oriented life; even the cover photograph is the work of Forcione’s late father, Michele Forcione. Recorded by Peter Williams at September Sounds, London and originally mastered by Julian Vereker.
“Ghetto Paradise is a sophisticated mixture of Antonio’s unique style, and an amazing world class rhythm section. All ten tracks on the album have been written and arranged by Antonio, a glowing testimony to his abilities as a composer and to the fact that Antonio’s already considerable talent is just getting better and better! This album is a true high-point for Antonio’s original and popular guitar playing.” - Notes from Original Press Release

 Day Trip / Tokyo Day Trip
Pat Metheny
$36.99
180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl LP - 3 LPs Sealed w/ 2 CDs
|
The Day Trip sessions were recorded at Manhattan’s Right Track studio in late October of 2005, sequenced and released into a 10-song set in the winter of 2008. Reviews from the daily U.S. press along the way have been a compendium of superlatives. The Philadelphia Inquirer declared, “Metheny shows why the trio is still relevant...There’s nowhere to hide, and the easy fluency of Metheny’s chops create a unique world. His energy and verve make it fun to follow where he goes.” The Boston Herald concurred, “The trio format brings out the best in guitar virtuoso Pat Metheny, going all the way back to his stir-causing 1975 debut with drummer Bob Moses and late bass legend Jaco Pastorius...But his current ensemble...is arguably his best yet.” And the Louisville Courier Journal summed up the nightly reaction to the trio’s sets, “It was a collaborative tour de force that earned a standing ovation.”
Tokyo Day Trip was originally released in May of 2008 as a 5-track EP recorded live in Tokyo with the Day Trip trio prior to their studio sessions. This 3-disc vinyl release combines the contents of the full-length album and the live EP in a 3-pocket deluxe gatefold package plus 2 CDs in baby jackets.
“The Pat Metheny Trio’s playing conveys a sense of proportion, substance and coherence, along with rigorous clarity; solid benchmarks for any great improvisers at the peak of their game.” – The New York Times

 Sinatra & Strings
Frank Sinatra
$29.99
180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl LP - Sealed
|
One of the most acclaimed albums of his career, Sinatra & Strings is a brilliant collection of standards sung with spectacular passion and feeling by Frank Sinatra, who at the time of the November 1961 recording, was in peak condition. The 1962 set is Sinatra’s first with arranger Don Costa, and stands as their finest collaboration.
Every song here is a classic ballad, every performance an elegant masterstroke. Sinatra achieves sublime perfection, and several tracks here became the definitive versions with which he’s now forever associated. For instance, the rendition of “Night and Day” is the singer’s third on record, but it’s the best. So, too, is Sinatra’s run through “All or Nothing At All,” preceding the swinging version by five years. And the bold interpretation of “Stardust,” on which Ol’ Blue Eyes only croons the verses, stands as a testament to the natural chemistry between Sinatra and Costa.
Most importantly, Sinatra infuses the material with the rarified kind of genuine emotion, evocative phrasing, universal pathos, and gorgeous tones that made him legend. His deepening baritone provides a keen match with Costa’s lush string arrangements and methodical pace. Anyone who believes that Sinatra’s best work was during his time with Capitol needs to hear this grand, magnificent album, which is as good as anything he ever recorded. Love songs don’t come any more sincere, romantic, dramatic, or intense.
Half-speed mastered from the original analog tapes, Mobile Fidelity’s numbered limited-edition 180-gram LP presents Sinatra & Strings with a premium sonic fidelity that no other edition, including the original vinyl, has ever had. Aware of the high quality demanded by discerning Sinatra fans, MoFi engineers took their time in extracting every possible detail and nuance from this gem, resulting a pressing that makes Sinatra and the orchestra come alive in your room. Nothing is artificially exaggerated or boosted; what you hear is what the artists intended, and the rich sound on this vocal album will satisfy your every need and desire. For Sinatraphiles, this is the ultimate.

$74.99
200 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl 45 RPM - 4 LPs Sealed
Temporarily out of stock
|
Arguably one of the most influential titles from John Coltrane and one of the greatest Blue Note releases ever. In 1957, right at the very start of his prestige recording period, 'Trane did this one-off set in New Jersey with Rudy Van Gelder with historic results. The recent reissue abundance of the title, re-packaged and enhanced in many ways, reveals the reverence put upon these sides. Transferred from the first-generation two track masters. Now available on Classic Records Clarity Vinyl SVP-II 200g as a Single Sided 45RPM Deluxe Box Set Release.
Clarity Vinyl represents the ultimate in vinyl formulations because it is comprised of over 90% of the highest quality co-polymer available, a key component in vinyl pellets used for manufacturing vinyl records. Further, Clarity Vinyl has no carbon black additive, common in vinyl formulas for LP’s. Carbon Black contains trace metals that become magnetized and cause “electrical distortions” in cartridges during playback that smears the sound. By taking out the Carbon Black, Classic Records is able to dramatically reduce the “electrical distortions” and thus bring more “Clarity” to the playback process, providing a more realistic musical experience to the listener and LP enthusiast.
45RPM records have long been recognized as providing a higher fidelity musical experience resulting purely from the cartridge being able to extract more of the nuance from the complex vertical and horizontal groove modulations in stereo LP’s. Further, Classic Records 45RPM “single sided” pressings dramatically reduce the mechanical resonances created by the cartridge during playback by allowing these resonances to be more fully transmitted to and absorbed by the turntable platter. Classic Records Clarity Vinyl 45RPM pressings are designed and manufactured to provide the “LOWEST DISTORTION” in every aspect of LP playback resulting in putting the listener as close to the music as possible.

 Coltrane Time
John Coltrane & Cecil Taylor
$24.99
180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl LP - 2 LPs Sealed
|
Recorded in NYC on Oct 13, 1958, Coltrane Time was originally released as Hard Driving Jazz (mono version)/Stereo Drive (stereo version) and the then 29-year-old pianist Cecil Taylor (not John Coltrane) originally got top billing on this date. This session is interesting because it is the only one Taylor ever did with Coltrane, and considering Taylor's status as one of the true founders of free jazz and Coltrane's status as a jazz legend, it is a kind of missing link in the history of jazz. Here the group plays two originals (one by trumpet player Kenny Dorham and one by bass man Chuck Israels), while the other two tracks Just Friends and Like Someone In Love are standards, an interesting look into early Taylor, because by the early '60s he was playing almost exclusively original compositions. One of the most uncompromising and unique pianists in jazz, his difficult and percussive style has placed him in a class of his own, making him one of those artists you either love or hate...but love or hate him, there is no denying his contribution to jazz, and that his visionary music is still ahead of its time.

1. Shifting Down

One in a series of strong comeback albums for Blue Note, this true classic features a simple line-up of four undisputed masters who all deliver on their renown.

Tight precision mixed with unbridled mirth abound in the interplay, with a lot of credi! t due t he choice of varying tempos and material. From within a career of constant superlatives, it’s hard to single such out, but Drew’s playing is particularly impressive and sets the bar in support of a single, solo horn date, for pianists. ).

More than seven years before Stan Getz and Charlie Byrd introduced the bossa nova of Antonio Carlos Jobim to American audiences, guitarist Laurindo Almeida and altoist Bud Shank (in a quartet with bassist Harry Babasin and drummer Roy Harte) recorded the intriguing music heard on this LP. The performances are very close to bossa nova in their combination of cool-toned jazz and Brazilian rhythms; in fact, these are arguably the first bossa nova recordings, long before even Jobim and Joao Gilberto initially recorded. Only 4 of the 14 tunes are not based on Brazilian folk songs, and many of the songs (particularly Carinoso) are quite memorable. This historically significant, very accessible, and highly recommended release is a gem.

 Du Jazz Dans Le Ravin
Serge Gainsbourg
$24.99
180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl LP - Sealed
|
Import
Serge Gainsbourg (1928-1991): the original bad boy of French pop, the man all women wanted and all men wanted to be. He updated the French chanson and made it hip again, infusing it with the youth culture of the late 50s and 60s: one that was ruled by jazz, drugs and free love. The music of Gainsbourg heralded in this new era and his earliest songs became the soundtrack for a generation of Parisian youths. Side A features songs that originally appeared in 1959 on his second album (here in stereo), “No. 2”. Here Gainsbourg fronts the Alain Goraguer et Son Orchestre on songs like Le Claqueur de Doigts, a song about seducing chicks at a jukebox....a standard operating tactic for Gainsbourg! While side B features material from his 1958 debut, “Du Chant a la Lune!”, which featured early hits like “Le Poinconneur Des Lilas” the morbid tale of a Paris Metro ticket man who contemplates suicide to free him from the monotony of his life. Tracks 1-3 on side B were recorded live at the “Theatre des 3 Baudets” in November, 1958, while tracks 8-10 are taken from Gainsbourg's score for Jacques Doniol-Valcroze's 1960 film “L'Eau a la Bouche” (A Game for Six Lovers). While it has always been somewhat difficult for English audiences to appreciate Gainsbourg, due to the language barrier that keeps us from fulling appreciating the sharp wit and raunchy innuendos that permeate his brilliant lyrical style, I find that if I allow the music to carry me to the world of 1960s Parisian vice, my imagination can fill in the rest!

 Sonny Stitt Sits With The Oscar Peterson Trio
Sonny Stitt and The Oscar Peterson Trio
$34.99
180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl LP - Sealed
|
Import
This record combines together a complete session that Sonny Stitt (doubling on alto and tenor) did with the 1959 Oscar Peterson Trio (which includes the pianist/leader, bassist Ray Brown and drummer Ed Thigpen) and three titles from 1957 with Peterson, Brown, guitarist Herb Ellis and drummer Stan Levey. The music very much has the feel of a jam session and, other than a themeless blues, all of the songs are veteran standards. Highlights on this fine effort include 'I Can't Give You Anything But Love,' 'The Gypsy,' 'Scrapple From The Apple,' 'Easy Does It' and 'I Remember You.' Lots of cooking music. – All Music Guide
Among Sonny Stitt’s innumerable recordings, this production, made in a Parisian studio in May 1959, is undoubtedly one of his very best. To be sure, this is greatly due to the contribution of the tremendously talented rhythm group. It is certainly a privilege to play sessions alongside such musicians as Oscar Peterson, Ray Brown and Ed Thigpen. Shortly before recording these funky, back-to-the-roots numbers Sonny Stitt had set down a somewhat over-arranged LP with Jimmy Giuffre. Maybe that is why his joy in music-making comes over so clearly in these eight titles. The repertoire too is interesting because the A side is dedicated to his great musical hero Charlie Parker and contains two of his hits, namely “Au Privave” and “Scrapple From The Apple,” while the B side reflects the relaxed, cool world of Count Basie, Lester Young and Ben Webster. It’s only logical therefore, that Stitt changes from the alto sax to the tenor for two numbers from the early days of the Count Basie Orchestra, a time when the two musicians were outstanding soloists. Stitt shows that by 1959 he had found his own, sophisticated style and the unmistakable sound on both saxophones is just as present on this Verve LP as on his other recordings.

 Little Johnny C
Johnny Coles
$49.99
180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl 45 RPM LP - 2 LPs Sealed
|
Trumpeter Johnny Coles, a distinctive and passionate player best known for his associations with Gil Evans, the remarkable Charles Mingus Quintet of 1964 and Herbie Hancock’s late 60’s Sextet, led relatively few albums of his own and only two before 1982. Recorded in 1963, Little Johnny C is universally recognized as Johnny Coles’ finest recording. Cole’s soulful trumpet is heard in superb form as he pushes the hard bop mainstream forward here. Duke Pearson, who was both a very skilled pianist, as well as one of the top arrangers of the 1960s, contributes five very fresh originals to the set. Notably, Little Johnny C is also one of tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson’s finest early recordings and his round sound and innovative phrasing are clearly evident at this early point of his career. With the superb title cut, the ballad “So Sweet My Little Girl” and “Jano” being high-points, in addition to beautiful flute and alto solos contributed by Leo Wright, Little Johnny C is a masterful album by an artist at his creative peak. This is a set to be savored again and again and there's no better place to do it than here on Limited Edition 180g 45RPM Double Vinyl!
Musicians:
Johnny Coles - trumpet
Duke Pearson - piano
Joe Henderson - tenor saxophone
Leo Wright - flute, alto saxophone

Billie Holiday

When planning this album, I had a hellish time trying to choose what I thought were the absolute cream of Billie Holiday. In the course of this wrestling, it struck me that not only were Billie’s vocals incredibly perfect, but that I could not remember a single instance of anyone playing a bad solo or even a bad phrase among the hundred or more performances I had to choose from in the golden period of her work. Checking over records (which was almost unnecessary, because I could still remember them almost note for note) was a rather beautiful and somewhat shattering experience. Jazz, a product of so many things, musical evolution, the social scene of a particular time, the economic atmosphere of the moment, what somebody had for breakfast that day and none of those tings will ever come together again as they did when these records were made. - Excerpt from George Avakian’s Liner Notes

Sun Ra was an extremely prolific artist and while hundreds of his recordings exist, there are only a handful where he can be heard playing solo. This amazing and rare solo performance recorded live in 1977 at the world-famous La Fenice opera house in Venice, and featuring Sun Ra playing a mix of standards as well as his own material on piano, is a rewarding journey into the repertoire of one of the most controversial and unorthodox musicians in the history of jazz.

 True Blue
Tina Brooks
$49.99
45 RPM 180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl LP - Sealed
Temporarily out of stock

Tina Brooks’ star burned with intense brightness before disappearing in the same tragic manner of too many other bop players of the time. Many jazz fans missed Tina Brooks’ recordings, the best of which were extraordinary by any measure. A soulful hard bop tenor-saxophonist with a sound of his own, Brooks (1932-74) had a brief life. Most of his better known recordings as a leader and sideman took place during a four year period from 1958-61. Unsung at the time, Brooks is now considered a true giant of the art. Brooks’ passionate and full sound and forward-looking style, along with his exceptional compositional gifts, combined to make him a powerful force. True Blue has become one of the most sought-after Blue Notes of all time. True Blue, along with the LP Back To The Tracks, contains most of Tina Brooks finest moments on record. Recorded in June of 1960, True Blue showcases Brooks along with the young firebrand trumpeter Freddie Hubbard in a set of highly inventive originals. Driven by an all-star rhythm section, True Blue is exhibit No. 1 for proof of Tina Brooks’ majestic sound and soulful writing prowess. For many aficionados of the Blue Note label, Tina Brooks’ True Blue is the very essence of the Blue Note sound and feel.

 Cool Struttin'
Sonny Clark
$49.99
45 RPM 180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl LP - Sealed
|
Considered one of the great young pianists of the mid-to-late 1950s, Sonny Clark was practically the house pianist at Blue Note during 1957-62 before his premature death in 1963. He led seven albums for Blue Note during that time, appeared on many dates as a sideman, and recorded Cool Struttin, which is considered his main classic. Clark never recorded an unworthy chorus. His playing was full of joyful discoveries, constant swing, and an optimistic creativity that was indescribable and quite infectious. On Cool Struttin from 1958, Clark matches wits and inventive ideas with altoist Jackie McLean and trumpeter Art Farmer. Their four lengthy performances, which include Miles Davis Sippin At Bells and the exotic Deep Night, are filled with magical moments where the five musicians seem to think and create like one. The greatest jazz performances include moments like those heard on Cool Struttin , where the music has a life of its own beyond the individual players. The more one plays Cool Struttin , the more it is obvious that this is one of the truly essential Blue Note recordings.
This title is not eligible for further discount.
Track Listing:
1. Cool Struttin'
2. Blue Minor
3. Sippin' at Bells
4. Deep Night
